    i would LOVE to have juwan howard on the lakers. now all we'd need is another PG to compliment fisher and solidify the PG position. (yes, i'm a fisher lover)

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Howard, who will be an unrestricted free agent this summer, has told friends in Denver that he would consider playing for the Lakers next season for the mid-level exception, approximately $4.5 million. Count Scottie Pippen among the other veterans hoping to apply for the same work. </div>

    They're sounding more and more like the Yankees everyday. I hate these guys in baseball who say they won't be traded, unless it's to the Yanks. What's the challenge in going to a great team? I'd rather go to an average team and make them much better, JKidd style. Howard I can understand some because he's never gotten a ring, but Scottie? He has a bunch already. I'm sure he wants to play for Phil again, but that's just not cool. I'll always have more respect for the JKidds of the world.

    you gotta admit though, other teams in the past year have done a great job of improving, namely the kings.

    but still, if you were serious about winning a ring, and the lakers were at you door believing that you are the missing piece of the dynasty puzzle...wouldn't you want to go?

    i mean, its not like the lakers are trying to buy a championship. you don't see them offering superstars loads of cash...they are trying to get what they can take with as little money as possible.

    that is my opinion...but of course, it may have a little bias in it.

    i agree to some extent. fisher can't be the main PG for the lakers. there has to be a really solid tandem for the PG position...someone that can split 50/50 playing time with fisher...i personally like jason terry. andre miller would be a dream.

    If The Lakers Have The Chance 2 Trade Fisher 4 Howard They Should Do It Payton Will Always Take The Main Pg Spot On The Court Over Fisher

    Guys, this thread is over a year old. Any leads in it are ass-old and probably no good. Thread closed.
